(c) is amended and supplemented as follows
Item 5(c) is amended and supplemented as follows On March 15, 2024, Mr. Yi was granted 6,400 restricted stock units ("RSUs").

All such RSUs will vest on June 15, 2024, subject to continued employment with the Issuer through the applicable vesting date. On March 15, 2024, Mr. Yi was granted 291,400 RSUs.

Achievement of the minimum, target, or maximum level for a measure would result in a value of 50%, 100%, or 150%, respectively, of the target incentive amount tied to that financial measure. The total amount earned shall be divided by the average closing price of the Class A Shares for the 20-day period ended as of the Friday preceding the Issuer's Compensation Committee's determination of the achievement of such financial measures (rounded up to the nearest whole share) to determine the number of PRSUs to be vested.

On the vesting date, the closing price per Class A Share was $15.94. 6346389 SIGNATURE After reasonable inquiry and to the best of their knowledge and belief, the undersigned certify that the information set forth in this statemen
